Hey Bud, not for the Foxtex but I had the same circumstances with my tracks done on a Boss 1200cd more than a few years ago and there was a service that converted audio files for several different formats located in Charlotte NC. I had 4-5 backup CD's I had completed on my unit that was in the Boss proprietary format but I thought their pricing was too high and opted not to use them. I don't recall the company name but they also did video conversions and had good reviews.

Fostex has a Mac software conversion program for some of their devices they may read your discs and allow conversion. It's called WAV Manager.
